Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

At the hearing on 13 June 2024 before Employment Judge T Vincent Ryan, the tribunal recorded that Mr S Atwell's claim that he was entitled to a redundancy payment from Swansea University was dismissed because he had withdrawn it. The judgment does not record any substantive determination on the merits of that claim.

The written judgment also states that it does not affect the claimant's continuing claims of disability discrimination, holiday pay, unauthorised deduction of wages, and breach of contract. No monetary award was made in this judgment.

How we got this data

Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
